CPVC ASTM Schedule 80 Piping system Specification
Scope: This specification outlines minimum manufacturing requirements for Chlorinated Polyvinyl Chloride (CPVC) schedule 80 iron pipe size (IPS) pressure pipe and fittings. This pipe & fittings is intended for use in industrial systems where the fluid conveyed does not exceed 200°F. This pipe meets and or exceeds the industry standards and requirements as set forth by the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) and the National Sanitation Foundation (NSF).
CPVC Materials: The material used in the manufacture of the pipe shall be a rigid chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (CPVC) compound, Type IV Grade I, with a Cell Classification of 23447 as defined in ASTM D1784. This compound shall be light gray in color, and shall be approved by NSF for use with potable water.
All fitting materials shall be CPVC with a cell classification of 23447 per ASTM D1784. All compound components shall be listed with NSF and meet the requirements of NSF Standard 61 as suitable for potable water.
Dimensions: CPVC Schedule 80 pipe shall be manufactured in accordance to the requirements of ASTM F441 for physical dimensions and tolerances. Each production run of pipe manufactured in compliance to this standard, shall also meet the test requirements for materials, workmanship, burst pressure, flattening, and extrusion quality defined in ASTM F441. All belled-end pipe shall have tapered sockets to create an interference-type fit, which meet or exceed the dimensional requirements, and the minimum socket length for pressure-type sockets, as defined in ASTM D2672.
All CPVC Schedule 80 Socket type fittings shall meet requirements of ASTM F439. All CPVC Schedule 80 threaded type fittings shall meet the requirements of ASTM F437 All CPVC Schedule 80 Unions fittings shall meet the requirements ASTM F 1970 : All CPVC Schedule 80 Flanges shall have Flange Bolt Hole Patterns as per ANSI B16.5 : All CPVC Schedule 80 NPT Threads shall meet the requirements of ANSI B1.20.1
Marking: Product marking shall meet the requirements of ASTM F 441 and shall include: the manufacturers name (or the manufacturers trademark when privately labeled); the nominal pipe size; the material designation code; the pipe schedule and pressure rating in psi for water @ 73°F; the ASTM designation F 441; and the independent laboratory’s seal of approval for potable water usage. The pipe & Fittings shall be produced by an ISO 9001 certified manufacturer, and shall be stored indoors after production, at the manufacturing site, until shipped from factory. This pipe shall carry the National Sanitation Foundation (NSF) seal of approval for potable water applications.
The pressure ratings of CPVC Schedule 80 Pipe in the Table given below are in PSI for water, non-shock, @ 73°F. The following temperature de-rating factors are to be applied to the working pressure ratings listed when operating at elevated temperatures. Multiply the working pressure rating of the selected pipe at 73°F, by the appropriate de-rating factor to determine the maximum working pressure rating of the pipe at the elevated temperature chosen. EX: 10" CPVC SCH 80 @ 120°F = ? 230 psi x 0.65 = 149.5 psi max. @ 120°F THE MAXIMUM SERVICE TEMPERATURE FOR CPVC IS 200°F.
Solvent-cemented joints should be utilized when working at or near maximum temperatures. It is not recommend to use of CPVC for threaded connections at temperatures above 150°F; use flanged joints, unions, or roll grooved couplings where disassembly is necessary at elevated temperatures.
connections. Installers should be approved and certified from Piping supplier and should have compulsorily received training and requisite experience in installation and safety procedures from Piping supplier. Prior to starting installation, Consult Pipe manufacturer assembly instructions, Material Data Safety Sheet from the cement manufacturer, ASTM D2855 Standard Practice for Making Solvent cemented Joints with PVC Pipe and Fittings and ASTM F402 Standard Practice for Safe Handling of Solvent Cements, Primers, and Cleaners used for Joining Thermoplastic Pipe and Fittings. Follow appropriate cure times prior to pressure testing—refer to Solvent cement manufacturer’s cement Cure Schedules and Testing sections.
